 A GOOD TOOL IS A WONDERFUL THING Dec 21, 2006
By R. Rowe
"FUSSY FOODIE"
I have had many rakes of differing type.
I greatly enjoy my Fiskars scissors & various tools, so I bought one of these and the narrower one of similar design.
It is a JOY to hold with the sort of oblong section to the light, well balanced long handle. I'm amazed at how well the curved plastic 'fingers' work in getting at the LEAVES and not the dirt.
And the PRICE is incredible for what usefulness it offers!

BEST LEAF RAKE EVER? Feb 20, 2008
By In Memory of W. G. Simms
COULD THIS BE THE BEST LEAF RAKE EVER?
Bought mine at LOWES a couple of years ago to replace another plastic-tined rake which I had been very pleased with. Was astounded at the comfort and effectiveness of the Fiskars rake vs. my old rake whose tines had been worn off. Loaned it to a neighbor - a recent college grad from one of the area's big engineering schools - very shortly later he had his own Fiskars!
Living in a veritable Druid's grove of various Quercus species, some of them with thin LIVE OAK type leaves, I have found this rake to be capable of gathering most of those with one pass.
Fiskars promotes this rake with the slogan:
LESS WORK; MORE WEEKEND
Believe it. [and thanks Fiskars engineers for a super product!]
TECHNICAL HI-LITES
1. TINES: are VERY sturdy and durable but you will need your garden rake to move big and/or damp piles of leaves
2. HANDLE: long enough for taller people but fine for shorter ones. The egg-shaped cross section allows much weight reduction yet provides great strength and it provides a level of comfort and fatigue-resistance that has to be experienced to be believed.
Disclaimer: Other than using their products I have absolutely no ties to Fiskars.

great rake! Jun 09, 2008
By Kateri W. Garcia
Sweeps up leaves like no other rake I've used before - though unfortunately you still have to bag the leaves :)

Great Rake Oct 01, 2007
By My Old KY Home
Bought this rake based on the reviews I read here. Best rake I have ever owned. I have had it for over a year and have left it out in the rain on occassion but it still works great.

Good Design! Sep 01, 2008
By Michael P. Kukielka
"BORG"
This is another innovative and quality product by Fiskar. The rake is very light with a flexible clog free design, perfect for gently scraping your lawns clean without ripping up the grass or raking away your garden mulch. The design of the rake also allows you to use it at more angles so you don't need to throw the rake ahead of you and pull it diagonally against the lawn like classic curved v-shaped rakes. The user experience is analogous to a indoor broom rather than a big stiff leaf rake.
The handle has an innovative oblong design which fits perfectly into your hand and helps you to maintain rake orientation, particularly in gloved hands.
I have found that the orange sleeve has tendency to slide up the handle, but it's too long to come completely off unless you are really determine to remove it.
Overall it's the best yard rake you're going to find!
